This includes, but is not limited to: * Federal, State, and Local Laws: Specific NIL laws in your state of residence, your institution’s state, and any other relevant jurisdictions. * NCAA Rules: All current and future NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) rules, including any interim policies or outcomes from legal settlements (e.g., House v.

4.2. No Pay-for-Play or Inducement: You agree that any compensation received for NIL activities facilitated through the Platform must be for actual services rendered at fair market value. Such compensation cannot be: * Conditioned on athletic performance (e.g., points scored, games won, team success). * Used as an inducement to enroll at, attend, or transfer to a particular educational institution. * A substitute for athletic aid or scholarships (unless expressly permitted and regulated by NCAA and institutional rules regarding direct payments to athletes, which are evolving).

4.5. Disclosure Requirements: You understand that certain NIL activities may require disclosure to your educational institution, conference, or athletic association, or may be subject to state-specific reporting requirements. You are solely responsible for fulfilling any and all such disclosure obligations in a timely and accurate manner. My Sports ID Card may provide tools to assist in documenting your NIL activities for self-reporting, but it is not responsible for filing disclosures on your behalf or ensuring their accuracy or completeness.
